Sensory Saturdays

Program for families with children on the autism spectrum

This is a free program for families with children who are 5 to 12 years old and on the autism spectrum. Families will have time to explore artworks in the galleries and get creative during a hands-on, art-making experience!

While the needs of individuals with autism are the focus of this program, it is also intended to be fun for parents, siblings (of all ages), and other relatives!

This program is offered on the second Saturday of every month.

Reservations are required. Registration for this program opens February 1.

Art and Relationships

Themed Tour

There are all sorts of relationships – love, friendship, family, professional, and others. Relationships have influenced art, made art, and made art collections! The Amon Carter itself had its beginnings in a friendship, and came into bloom through a family relationship. Artists have collaborated, influenced each other, and married each other. This tour discusses how some of these relationships have influenced the museum’s permanent collection. No reservations required.
